Manchester City and Monaco meet for just the third time in a competitive setting on Wednesday night, with their previous two duels eight years ago refusing to disappoint.
City‘s 5–3 victory over the Ligue 1 side in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie was one of the great continental games that has since gone under the radar, with a mightily talented Monaco side reversing their deficit via a similarly dramatic 3–1 victory in the return leg.
